When I am Gone

"Many go fishing all their lives without            knowing that it is not fish they are after." - Henry David            Thoreau

As I approach my twilight years, I am struck by the            inevitability that the party must end. And one clear, cold morning            after I'm gone, my spouse will awaken in the warmth of our bedroom and            be struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't            "anymore."

No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate            together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more "just 5 minutes            more."

Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up            and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, or say "I            love you."

So while we have it, its best we love it, care for            it, fix it when it's broken and heal it when it's sick.

This is            true for marriage.....and old cars, and children with bad report            cards, and dogs with bad hips, and aging parents and grandparents. We            keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth            it.

Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away or            a son-in-law after divorce. There are just some things that make us            happy, no matter what.

Life is important, like people we know            who are special. And so, we keep them close!

Suppose one            morning you never wake up, do all your friends know how you really            feel? The important thing is to let every one of your friends know            your true feelings, even if you think they don't love you            back.

So, just in case I'm gone tomorrow, please rest assured I            voted against that asshole, Obama, both          times!
